The number of pritnerj hai been In

mountain of raptured and abandoned
material is in die possession nf the
allies. Many kuih takrn had lireD
blown up or damaged by the enemy be
fore he abandoned them.
The British effort along the line
near Rheims have been rewarded by
a bag of prisonrrs and machine ((tins.
French Nearly Clear Marne of Foe.
PARIS, July 23. French progress in the region of Oulchy-le-Chateau,
says the Echo de Paris, will soon render the Ger
man positions in that sector untenable. New forces of General
De Mitry's army Have crossed the Marne between Passy and
Dormans, says the Petit Journal whiph concludes that the
northern bank of the Marne in this region will soon be cleared
of the enemy.
Artillery activity along the battle front during the course
of the night is all that is reported in the official statement is
Bued by the war office today.
North of Montdidier in the Somme sector a local operation
brilliantly conducted permitted the French to occupy the vil
lages of Mailly-Rainevnl, Sauvillers and Aubevillers. The
French took 350 prisoners.
Foe Tries to Block
Attacks on Flanks
By The Associated Press.
"WITH THE rKF.NC'H'AKMY'oN'
THE AISNF-MAKNE FRONT. Mon
day, July 22. (Night.) The fiercest
fighting continued throughout the day
on both wings of the German salient
between the Aisne and the Marne. The
efforts of the enemy are concentrated
in an effort to prevent the allied troops
from cutting through on either side and
thus imperiling the great masses of
German troops still within the temi
circle. Despite the German determinatjon,
French, American and Utitish troops
all made progress.
British at Rheims
Face Fresh Foe
By The Associated Press.
WITH THE FRENCH ARMY ON
THE AISNF.-MARNE FRONT. Mon
day, July 21 Probably the heaviest
fighting todav occurred on the eastern
wing of the alient where Uritish troops
took part. The Itritishers, who had ar
rived on the scene only recently, en
gaged the enemy in a hand-to-hand
conflict in the extremely wooded re
gion southwest of Rheims.
Italians Annihilate Division.
Four frrh division! faced them. One
Herman division which had held the
line against tlig Italians bad been anni
hilated, only a few hundred remaining.
The Germans had a large number of
giyis in this vicinity but the British
captured forty of them in the course
of a strong attack in which theV made
progress and took more than 200 pris
oners. Hun Rushes in More Troops.
Altogether the day was very satis
factory for the allies, who are threat
ening the Germans' communications
everywhere. There is every reason to
believe that the Germans are hurrying
forward more divisions to add to the
sixtv they already have thrown into
the battle.
fkttieta Score in
Locaf Operations
LONDON, July 2.1 Advancn in lo
cal operations were scored by the Brit
ish last night, today's war office report
shows. The line was pushed forward
slightly south of Hebuterne. on the
front between Arras and Albert and
Merris and Meteren, on the Flanders
front. The British lines also were im
proved in the Hamel sector and north
of Albert.
The German artillery showed con
siderable activity last night with gas
shells in the Yillers-P.rettoneux sec

Allies Cling to Heels
Of Retreating Enemy
By The Associated Preta.
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
ON THE AISNE-MARNE FRONT,
Mormay, July 22. (Night.) German 1
resistance resulted in harder fighting
todav. The operations were robbed of
some of their spectacular features as
the day advanced by the determination
of the enemy not to be crowded into a
retreat.
South of Soissons the allied troops
maintain all positions as they were
Sunday night except in some cases
where they have been improved slight
ly. The allied positions, however, are
in no apparent danger from attacks by
German reserves.
Allies Clint to Foe's Heela.
In the area north of Chateau Thierry
the enemy is reported by air observers
to be still moving northward, but very
slowly and fighting rear guard actions
all the while. T he French and Ameri
cans are hanging close to the heels of
the retiring Germans and are making
every effort to move forward. The
army .moves ahead bit by bit as the
line advances.
F.nemy airplanes have been active on
observation work but the shells fired
by the German artillery in an attempt
to search out the allied rear indiiate
that the airmen failed to spot the al
lied positions. Many shells have
dropped along the Marne at irregular
intervals and little damage litft result
ed. . Bag of Prisoners Is Increased.
Throughout the day the heavy guns
of the allies bombarded the enemy lines
with excellent results, according to
aerial lookouts. Over all the ternturv
retaken the damage wrought by Ameri
can and French guns shows that the
positions formerly held by the Germans
suffered much more than the allied
lines, notwithstanding that the volume
of the fire from the Germans was
greater.
Further large numbers of prisoners
were taken from the Germans yesterday.
